I started Wrath of the Righteous in January and still haven’t finished it :/ But I’m over 160 hours in and close to the end.
I played some other games in between, but I’m kinda impressed you beat so many beasts of games.

Like a true patient gamer I didn’t play a single game from 2025.

OK, some people are just lost. Canned pasta are disgusting. And I promise that I won’t go further than to my mail box in Birckenstocks ;)

Just stop using computers at all to program computer games.

Have you tried Currywurst or Spätzle or Sauerbraten or any kind of German sausage or Mettbrötchen or German bread and still think we don’t love food?
- Comment on LG Update Installs Unremovable Microsoft Copilot on Smart TVs, Ignites Backlash 2 weeks ago:
Thanks to HDMI-CEC you can control additional media players with your TV’s remote. Sometimes it might not be perfect for things like long presses and stuff, but for basic controls it works.
That’s my experience with an Nvidia Shield and a Raspberry with KODI. I wouldn’t really recommend the Raspberry though.
- Comment on Vampire: the Masquerade - Bloodlines, why is it so hyped? 1 month ago:
I can confirm, I played the GoG version on Linux some years ago.
- Comment on Why would I buy this? 2 months ago:
Maybe because there are still people who are not tired of Call of Duty, liked the predecessor and are still looking forward for a sequel and play it with their friends?
Oh wait, this isn’t even the newest CoD? Probably they just forgot to update the prices. Probably forgot it even exists because there is a new one.

I remember those fake beyblades that were completely made out of metal. Those things were dangerous. Never used my original beyblades against those death machines.
- Comment on Mario Maker 2 is really fun to revisit 5 months ago:
Considering how much your average Switch user plays online games, it might be even less justified for Nintendo to require a subscription than Sony or Microsoft. I really don’t feel like paying for that, just because I want to play MM2 every couple of months.

That sounds interesting, never heard oft it. Thanks.

I really don’t play enough on the Switch to justify subscribing to Nintendo Online (also: fuck you Nintendo that this is even a thing), but do I miss playing MM2. Such a great game, but literally unplayable without the subscription.
- Comment on Nintendo touts high employee retention rate after loss of Microsoft jobs rocks Xbox Game Studios 5 months ago:
I’m pretty sure the Switch 1 is older than 4 years (and was cheaper than $500). And their games are actually quite good.
So Nintendo might be a fuckwad company, but your comment is still full of bullshit.

Knowledge is king in this game. How should I have known that all my teamwork feats are useless, when I pick Azata Mythic Path? That’s why I play on daring with respec enabled.
- Comment on Favourite 90s platformer? 9 months ago:
2D: Super Mario World. It just plays smooth af. Pretty close to a perfect videogame.
3D: Rayman 2. Platformers usually have a colorful and happy world. Rayman might still be colorful, but it stands out because it’s kinda grim. Gameplay wise… I should replay it, because I’m not actually sure anymore. I think all 3D platformers of this time could be a little bit janky. I remember there were some frustrating parts, at least for a kid.

- Comment on What's your favorite Pokémon Game? 9 months ago:
I think Gold was amazing back when I first played. I liked the new Pokemon designs and when I found out you can go to Kanto, my mind was blown. I did not expect so much playtime after the Elite 4. Everything in that game was an improvement to the first gen. It still had some jank, but at that time, I think it was the perfect game they could make.
But there is one thing where I think the GBA games stood out: graphics. I still love it, it’s extremely timeless and just beautiful. That is still how Pokemon games should look like today. I prefer Leaf Green over Emerald because it doesn’t have way too many water routes like Hoenn and as Gold and Silver, it had some nice unexpected post Elite 4 content.
Of course I’m totally biased because those were my childhood games. I tried Soul Silver maaaaany years later and got Shield for the switch, but they could not keep up with the GBA games. Maybe I will give Gen 4 and 5 a go in the future though.
